The problem was that any VIEW columns had always implicit derivation.
Fix: derivation is now copied from the original expression
given in VIEW definition.
For example:
- a VIEW column which comes from a string constant
in CREATE VIEW definition have now coercible derivation.
- a VIEW column having COLLATE clause
in CREATE VIEW definition have now explicit derivation.
Problem: Too confusing error message when cannot convert
between string and column character sets on INSERT and UPDATE.
Fix: producing a better error message, instead of "Data too long"
in such cases
Additional changes: Adding "DROP TABLE IF EXISTS" into several
tests to be safe against failures in previous tests.
- bug #11655 "Wrong time is returning from nested selects - maximum time exists
- input and output TIME values were not validated properly in several conversion functions
- bug #20927 "sec_to_time treats big unsigned as signed"
- integer overflows were not checked in several functions. As a result, input values like 2^32 or 3600*2^32 were treated as 0
- BIGINT UNSIGNED values were treated as SIGNED in several functions
- in cases where both input string truncation and out-of-range TIME value occur, only 'truncated incorrect time value' warning was produced
Problem: for character sets having mbmaxlen==2,
any ALTER TABLE changed TEXT column type to MEDIUMTEXT,
due to wrong "internal length to create length" formula.
Fix: removing rounding code introduced in early 4.1 time,
which is not correct anymore.
The function receives an exactly-sized buffer (not a C NUL-terminated string)
and passes it into a printf function to be interpreted with "%s".
Instead, create an intermediate String object, and copy the data into it,
and pass in a pointer to the String's NUL-terminated buffer.

When a user was using 4.1 tables with VARCHAR column and 5.0 server
and a query that used a temporary table to resolve itself, the
table metadata for the varchar column sent to client was incorrect:
MYSQL_FIELD::table member was empty.
The bug was caused by implicit "upgrade" from old VARCHAR to new
VARCHAR hard-coded in Field::new_field, which did not preserve
the information about the original table. Thus, the field metadata
of the "upgraded" field pointed to an auxiliary temporary table
created for query execution.
The fix is to copy the pointer to the original table to the new field.

The Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function creates Field_datetime
object instead of Field_timestamp object for timestamp field thus always
changing data type is a tmp table is used.
The Field_blob object constructor which is used in the
Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() is always setting packlength field of
newly created blob to 4. This leads to changing fields data type for example
from the blob to the longblob if a temporary table is used.
The Item::make_string_field() function always converts Field_string objects
to Field_varstring objects. This leads to changing data type from the
char/binary to varchar/varbinary.
Added appropriate Field_timestamp object constructor for using in the
Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function.
Added Field_blob object constructor which sets pack length according to
max_length argument.
The Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function now creates
Field_timestamp object for a timestamp field.
The Item_type_holder::display_length() now returns correct NULL length NULL
length.
The Item::make_string_field() function now doesn't change Field_string to
Field_varstring in the case of Item_type_holder.
The Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function now uses the Field_blob
constructor which sets packlength according to max_length.
